Omnigaze is the annual activity during which people around the world share the action of looking at the same point in the sky at the same time.
To find this shared point, attendees use the omnigaze device which is made out of printed and cut-out paper and works based on the position of the sun and the attendee’s location.
This year the 8th omnigaze coinsided with and was the opening event of the ‘Near enough?’.
Using the omnigaze devices, some of which were provided and some build and brought by the visitors, we joined with others around the world in omnigaze from the tolhuistuin garden.
Omnigaze is an on-going project initiated and run by Joubin Zargarbashi.

During the exhibition Marta Colpani made live drawings of the visitors’ hands while they were holding their phones. The drawings were piled up on the tables and benches in the garden.

“The hands are the instrument of human intelligence.” Internet-connected devices supposedly extend these possibilities with available knowledge and networks. However, our hands constantly holding a phone are precluded from being able to learn and make contact with the environment where we find ourselves. Observing this phenomenon, Marta Colpani wonders in what ways this habit changes what we think we can do, what we think is in our power to do in our close vicinity.

Some visitors just scanned the codes thus making a kind of catalogue in the History list of their bar code scanners.

For last but not least many thanks to the Tolhuistuin for hosting Near Enough?!
